French Classic & Modern Gateaux & Tarts Class

Last month, KL dumped me and went away for the weekend in the mountains to snowboard. In bid to occupy myself during that time, I signed myself up for a French Baking class.

Picture of my teacher’s cakes.

Pistachio Mascarpone Almonds Gateaux. Okay, it doesn’t look like my teacher’s cake but I think it taste the same.

Chocolate and Pumpkin Tart with Mocha Sabayon. I know it looks like it has some breadtop buns on top, but that is really the nice bit. And, I made the chocolate decorations!

Passionfruit and Mango Tart. Well, half of it anyway. Had to share it with my stupid lazy partner. I like this best - actually, I might make it again some day.

I didn’t take a picture of the fourth cake - Fusion Entrement. But its probably the same look as my teacher’s.

Wah Piang… I never realised so much work just to make it look nice. Seriously, don’t think I’ll make those cakes again. Not worth the trouble.

But I made a friend or two there. I had a teacher’s assistant who helped me quite a bit and have since been in contact on MSN. Might meet him for coffee one day.
